• 2016/2017 Fiat 500 Abarth

    Just like the regular 500 did a few months ago, the Abarth version gets a few modifications. It’s even more aggressive looking now. Not sure what that is coming over to the US. I would say for the 2017 model year. But we are still waiting for the revised “regular” 500. So who knows…

  • Lexus LC

    Just a few new pictures. (Or at least they are new to me since I haven’t seen them before) This particular one is the Hybrid version. While it does look great even in red. (Most pictures of the LC are of the red one) In a more “regular” color it looks really fantastic. Even the… Continue reading Lexus LC

  • 2018 Kia GT

    Kia has been testing a production version (top) of the 2011 GT Concept (bottom)for a while. As you can see, it looks fine and pretty much ready to go. And, pretty close to the concept. But it’s been 5 years. Five-years…. So nothing futuristic here. Seems like it could be based on the Hyundai Genesis… Continue reading 2018 Kia GT

  • VW Jetta GLI Test Drive

     The current Jetta came out almost 6 years ago. Yes, 6 years. And for all that criticism of being boring and uninspired, I have to admit it has aged very well. Which is usually what happens to “conservative” designs. It is a pretty good looking car. And the GLI version I had for a week… Continue reading VW Jetta GLI Test Drive

  • 2017 Nissan Kicks

    Here is the all new Tiny Nissan Kicks. As of now, it is mostly for the south American market. But Nissan calls it  “global model”. At first, people thought it could be a replacement for the Juke in the US. But it is actually smaller. And looks bit simpler inside. So this could come here… Continue reading 2017 Nissan Kicks

  • 2017 Peugeot 3008

    Still covered up a bit. But this already looks petty good. Again, there might be a slight chance we will actually see this (And other next generation Peugeot models) as part of their test/rental fleet over here. We’ve already seen the futuristic interior a few days ago. But here it is again. 

  • 2017 BMW i3

    It pretty much looks the same. Except maybe, the dark wood finish inside, which I haven’t seen before? And, finally, the large sunroof will be available in the US. (It was only available last year as part of some limited edition series) The big news is the new battery. It now gets a 115 miles… Continue reading 2017 BMW i3

  • Ford Escape Spy shots

     Not sure what Ford is testing here. But these pictures of a “still” camouflaged Ford Escape were taken just a couple of days ago in California. Strange since it seems to be a regular 2017 model. That’ we’ve already all seen. It really seems to be the same thing. They are obviously still testing something.… Continue reading Ford Escape Spy shots
